There must be a reason why the bootstrap process uses a manifest file,

Sure,
the current Docbook toolchain does not only transform XML to HTML or
render it to FO/PDF. We support the automatic execution of SCons
examples for the User Guide, and add its output in the right places.
Like this, the output of SCons---as shown in the manual---is always
consistent with the current version.
That's what the step *.in -> *.xml is basically for.
For more infos check
http://scons.org/wiki/DeveloperGuide/Documentation
and
http://scons.org/wiki/DeveloperGuide/Documentation/Discussion
, respectively.
In the background I'm working on a new toolchain, with less dependencies
to other packages...and a single set of input files for the user. ;)
Regards,
Dirk
